Phagwara, October 28

The Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi has begun an exercise to help over 100 Punjabi workers stranded in Abu Dhabi on the directions of the Foreign Ministry.

The community affairs wing, Embassy of India, Abu Dhabi, in an email message to Dilbag Singh, a resident of Baina Pur village near Nurmahal, requested him to share the details of the stranded employees in that regard.

Dilbag Singh said the passports of these workers are with the company (Square General Contracting Co, Abu Dhabi). The company forced workers out of their jobs, but their passports were not being returned. The matter was raised with the Foreign Minister Dr S Jaishankar a few days back.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
